Love Letters...
For the pink hooded girl..
Your name is Ayung, isn't it?
2 Hours have passed...
After I helped keep you away from two guys trying to flirt. The shadow of your face is never lost in my eyes. It's the second day I'm starting to put some sense into you. After the MOS..
People say, writing feelings into a letter is outdated.But I don't think so!
People say that writing feelings into a piece of writing is a weakness. I don't think!
The other side of me, you'll know one day when you read my first letter.
That afternoon,
When you look at it from across the street.. It was like looking at a ray of light that radiated just to illuminate my vision. Shortly thereafter.. The light came in through the recesses until what I thought was comfortable, peaceful and calm.
Infiltrate, warm the heart.
A lonely heart.
I have loved you for 2 days.. But I feel like all these years of despair have grown in my heart. Have we met before? When I was a kid maybe? your pretty face looks like I've seen it. But where?
Let me ask you a question?
Is there a gap for me?
To get into your life?
If anything, I patiently wait until you look to your side and behind. That there's me here. I'll keep you awake.
Because I want to love you simply.
As the leading poet wrote.
For now I'm here, see you tomorrow at school.
^^^Senja,^^^
^^Bandung kala malam.^^^

Today is the day that as a 10th grade class begins its first lesson. I eagerly watched the teacher in front of the class, wanting to prove that I could live well on my own.
Really, it's a pride that I got into the best school in town. After all these years I've just been quietly accepting cover.
Wasn't...
It's not that I'm afraid of them.
My cousin Rafa and his friends are so happy to veil and insult me. I only replied with my silence. Never fought or fought.
Is it because of their excitement, to like me?
Or because of my achievements?
Unimportant.
"My name is Rian! " Someone sat down next to me and introduced himself.
"Monday.. "
"Lo's not the kid here? " She asked while watching me from head to toe.
"From Jakarta's.. " I said briefly, and he just nodded his head.
"Gue is also from Jakarta, although not native there.just 2 years of bokap work.but now in movein again here."
Rian and I became acquainted, and we eventually became familiar.
***
Braaaac.
A bowl held by a female student fell on the floor.
"Yaaaaah..bakso akuu! you if you wander! "
"Ehh.. sorry! not intentionally! I changed yaa.. "
"Ga necessary! change the bowl already has a canteen mother.trus beresin all of you! " The female student was angry.
"Yeah neng. don't get angry.. "
Me and Rian who were sitting in the cafeteria were watching my classmate who was cleaning a bowl on the floor.
When finalized. Suddenly he approached us and sat down without excuse.
"I'm Dion! your classmates both! " Said familiar.
The three of us chatted while drinking the juice we ordered to the cafeteria mother.
"Resignation... "
Hearing the name mentioned, I remembered a name that from yesterday really filled my mind and heart. Ayungs.
The three of us impulsively looked in the direction where the source of the voice was.
"Wait for meuu! " A female student whom I believed to be her classmate, walked up to her.
"So he said he wasn't going to the cafeteria... "
That voice, for the first time I heard coming out of her beautiful sense of taste.
"Well, I changed my mind! " His friend, suddenly looking towards me clingy.
And I threw my eyes away in the other direction, because I felt noticed by him.
They both sat far from our seats.
"Cantiii.. " Say Rian, looking at Lembayung.
"Bangetpov.. " Say Dion chimed.
Membayung...
You are so beautiful..
Membayung... That evening I started loving you.
